VMware Infrastructure Enables Enterprise Class Performance, While Saving Money On Space, Hardware And Power Consumption, And Preventing True Disasters
"VMware allows us to manage our resources much better - we buy only what we need and can actually tune our computing environment to our needs. As a small hospital with only a 17-person IT staff, having physical servers stretched our capabilities. VMware allows us to do more with the same staff, and do the job right."
Thomas Weisel Partners
VMware Infrastructure Provides a Cost-Effective Way to Consolidate and Administer Servers
"The benefits of VMware Infrastructure 3 are fairly obvious: less overhead, less power costs, less IT administration time that an engineer could spend doing something else. . . . The list goes on."
TradeBeam
VMware vCenter Stage Manager And VMware vCenter Lifecycle Manager Allow TradeBeam To Quickly And Easily Accommodate Software Builds And Validations Utilizing The Same Resources For Multiple Functions Simultaneously
“It used to take two to three people about a week to set up and configure a customer environment. With VMware technology, that’s something we can now accomplish in half a day. We’re probably saving as much as a month of man hours when it comes to configuration of environments.”
Transit Authority of River City (TARC)
Transit Authority Uses Virtualization To Keep Things Moving
“Selecting Intel based hardware for our VMware virtualization solution was a wise decision. The number of cores running on each processor gives us all the processing power we need to run our critical transit applications.”

VMware Technology Streamlines IT Infrastructure And Provides The Ideal Platform For Business Continuity Initiatives.
“Once we saw what the VMware solution could do, it was like hearing angels singing... It was the perfect solution to use with our SAN to address all of the challenges we’d been having in setting up a business continuity solution.”
Tucson Electric Power
Implement Virtualization To Consolidate Servers, To Reduce Power And Cooling Demands, And To Facilitate Application Management, Upgrades, And Availability
“The application administrators performing the FileNet upgrade saw a huge benefit in VMware. We were a couple of revisions behind, and the ability to spawn off new instances and take snapshots before doing any steps made the upgrade much easier. The FileNet application administrators could make sure that the process was correct before moving forward to the production upgrade.”
United Bank & Trust
VMware Infrastructure 3 And Equallogic Virtualized Iscsi SAN Combine To Simplify IT Management And Improve Operations.
“VMware High Availability and EqualLogic’s iSCSI SAN ensure that our critical applications experience minimal production downtime in the event of a hardware failure. You can’t put a price tag on that capability when you’re a customer-centric business.”
United States Army - III Corps
VMware Technology Creates A Virtual Platform That Simplifies The Deployment Of Virtual Machines While Increasing Reliability And Availability
“Standardizing on VMware technology was an easy decision. In my world, the ‘best’ is what everyone else is using, and from what I’ve seen, that’s VMware.”
University of Florida
Implement Virtualization To Consolidate Servers, Redistribute Excess Capacity, And Improve Application Availability, Thereby Ensuring Business Continuity
“We had a lot of issues with SQL Server running on a single rack on a server. For starters, if that server were to fail, SQL would become unavailable—there was a single point of failure. Now that SQL is running on a virtual machine, if an ESX host server has an issue, everything fails over to another ESX server. Availability has increased, stability has increased, and even performance has increased. It has been a godsend for SQL Server to be on a virtual machine.”
University of Maryland School of Medicine
VMware Infrastructure 3 Combined With LeftHand Networks Open iSCSI SAN Powered by SAN/iQ® to Offer Synchronous, Automated Business Continuity
“We had an environmental power outage that took out one of our data sites. Thanks to VMware High Availability and LeftHand Networks’ open iSCSI SAN, there was almost zero downtime before our servers failed over to our other site. No one even noticed—it was business as usual.”
University of Missouri-Rolla
University of Missouri-Rolla Replaces 65 Servers with Nine Dell™ PowerEdge™ 2650 Servers Running VMware¨ ESX™ Virtualization Software; Sets Up Four of the Servers at a Secondary Site to Enable Redundancy
"With VMware on our Dell servers, we can get a server ready within two to three hours of the initial request. That's incredible."
University of Toledo
VMware View Creates A Virtual Desktop Infrastructure That Delivers Applications And Information To End Users At Less Cost And With Less Hassle Than Physical PCs
“The students are the lifeblood of the school: they’re why we’re here. Purchasing and deploying VMware solutions allows us to provide new and innovative services to the students that will enhance their academic journey. You can't really put a price tag on that.”
USi
Migrate From A Redundant Architecture To An Agile Virtualized Architecture With A Far Higher Utilization Rate
“VMware Offers A Virtualization Solution That Gives Us The Reliability, Performance And Ease Of Management We Need. For Us, The Most Important Thing About VMware Products Is That They Are Both Hardware And Operating-System Agnostic. VMware Lets Us Support Many Operating Systems On Any Hardware, Maximizing Utilization And Flexibility.”
VariQ
The Agency Turned to VariQ to Implement VMware Infrastructure 3 Enterprise with Integrated Disaster Recovery Functionality. The Solution Helped the Agency to Increase Uptime, Maintain High Application Availability and Reduce Recovery Time
“The VMware Infrastructure 3 Enterprise snapshot features combined with our shared SAN storage mesh are truly impressive. We have reduced application testing to production lifecycles by 300 percent.”
ViaHealth / Rochester General Hospital
VMware Infrastructure 3 Simplifies IT Administration and Provides Greater Control Over Computing Environment.
“We have a VMware-first policy, and have virtualized nearly 90 percent of our application environment—that shows how much confidence we have in VMware technology.”
ViaHealth / Rochester General Hospital
VMware Infrastructure Has Become The Default Platform For All Applications. It Runs More Than 60 Large SQL Servers With Great Performance And Reliability. VMware High Availability Has Replaced Microsoft Clustering To Provide Simpler, More Dependable Availability For SQL. VMware Technology Also Forms The Basis Of A Cost-Efficient And Effective Disaster Recovery Plan
“We have close to 60 Microsoft SQL Servers virtualized, some with a disk usage greater than 90 MB per second, which translates to 22,000 IOPS. These are SQL Servers that touch the patient and have a lot of traffic—if they’re down, it’s a major issue. Having them virtualized on VMware gives us greater reliability and more uptime.”
ViaHealth / Rochester General Hospital
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Provides Healthcare Workers Flexibility And Freedom From A Terminal Services Environment
"Virtual Desktops allows us to better manage software, so it saves us a lot of time. VDI definitely was a no-brainer for us because, if we’re that successful on the server side, we should be successful on the desktop side, and so far it’s proven to be so."
Virginia Community College System (VCCS)
Yes, Virginia, There Is A Way To Reduce Power And Cooling In Your Data Center
"VMware is definitely a leader in the virtualization space, and we think Intel is right on the money with the chipsets they're developing for virtual environments."
VMware Education Information Systems
VMware vCenter Lab Manager, VMware’s Virtual Lab Automation System, Provides EIS With The Ideal Tool To Conduct Testing More Effectively
“We would need a significantly larger infrastructure team if we wanted to maintain the same pace of software development and releases that VMware vCenter Lab Manager allows.”
VMware Professional Services
VMware Consultants Worked Closely With VMware IT To Develop An Architectural Design For VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager To Fit The Business Requirements, Leveraging Expertise And Experience Gained From Previous SRM Engagements
“Working with VMware Professional Services, we were better able to determine what we were really trying to accomplish in our disaster recovery program, and then form a conceptual architecture around those needs. Plugging in the right technology became a relatively simple final step.”
